I just learned today (10.14.08) of Dale's passing; to say I am shocked is an understatement. May the God of peace and love be with and bless you. I only knew Dale 67 years; that was not enough time. The 4 of us were going to Hewlett after Christmas.

Ricky,
I am so sad about Dale's sudden passing- bu she would have said it: If you gotta go then GO!! She was so quick and inquisitive and had a question and....seeking an answer on so many issues. She will be missed!!! Even by folks who knew her only from our endless e-mail exchanges- jokes- or political commentary-Regards,Elena Siddall Bavon ,Va.
